– 1 stere = 1 m³ of stacked wood (cut to 1 meter).
– So, 50 steres of chestnut logs represent approximately 65 to 70 m³ of raw wood, to be split.

– 1. Wood type:
– A volume of 50 steres represents a large quantity of wood, each stere being equivalent to approximately 1 m³ of stacked wood (with spaces between the logs). For log wood, the measurement may vary slightly depending on the shape and arrangement of the wood.
– 3. Log dimensions:
– Logs can vary in length and diameter, but they are often sold in sections 2 to 6 meters long, with a diameter that can range from 20 to 50 cm, or even more, depending on the cutting specifications.
– Chestnut is a good firewood with a calorific value of about 2000 to 2100 kWh per stere after drying (about 18 months to 2 years of drying to reach a moisture content of less than 20%). However, it burns faster than woods like oak, although it is very efficient and pleasant to use in open or closed fireplaces.
– Chestnut must be dried before being used for heating or carpentry. It has a high moisture content when freshly cut (about 40 to 60%), but it dries quite well outdoors under shelter.
– For firewood, drying for approximately 18 months to 2 years is recommended to achieve good energy efficiency.
– Firewood: With a significant calorific value, chestnut is often used to heat homes with wood stoves, fireplaces, or boilers.
